Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)—A Case Study and Review of Literature[ ]


Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a syndrome characteristically having numerous (hundreds to thousands) polyps in the epithelium of the large intestines with an autosomal dominant inheritance caused by germ line mutations in adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene in chromosome 5q21. Most FAP patients have a family history of colorectal polyps and cancer but 25-30% of them are "de novo", without any clinical or genetic evidence of FAP in family members. Prophylactic proctocolectomy is required in almost all patients since all affected patients inevitably develop cancer. We report a case of a 24-year-old girl who presented with recurrent bleeding per rectum, which on evaluation as found to have multiple colorectal polyps and underwent a prophylactic proctocolectomy with end continent ileostomy. In conclusion, patients with FAP may present with vague abdominal complaints and without any family history, hence need to be carefully evaluated. Good patient compliance is of prime importance in deciding the treatment and surveillance modality subsequently determining the prognosis of patients with FAP.

A lossy source coding algorithm using the least significant bits[ ]


Enhanced radiometric and geometric specifications of the sensors, on-board remote sensing satellites, result in large volumes of data that has to be downlinked. Several compression techniques like JPEG, JPEG 2000, with different encoding, are being employed to compress the data. Here a simple lossy source coding algorithm, using the least significant bits (LSBs), is being proposed to reduce the number of bits to be transmitted. The maximum loss in information of the digital number count will be one-fourth the maximum value of the number of the LSBs. Some of the advantages of the algorithm are good compression with minimal loss in information, conducive for acquiring high bit data, simple and inexpensive compression logic and the algorithm does not introduce artifacts.
